Follow these few simple steps to minimise scale build
up in your kettle: Empty the kettle after each use; do
not allow water to stand in the kettle overnight. Use
filtered water instead of tap water. Descale the kettle
regularly, at least once a month. If you live in a hard
water area you may need to descale more often. When
descaling has finished, empty the kettle and rinse it out
a minimum of 3 times with fresh water, then refill with
fresh water, boil, then discard boiled water. Failure to
do so can cause injury. DO NOT BOIL KETTLE WITH
DESCALING SOLUTION IN IT.
